Leaving jumpers barefoot: my unexpected success

Many farriers say jumpers must have shoes, but I disagree. After skipping shoes on a few, their hooves improved and they jumped just fine.

So @mia_king, you noticed better frog growth first? For mine, the whole hoof capsule got way stronger and tighter.

Wow, how'd you notice the hoof improvement, specifically?

seriously though, what was the biggest change you saw in the hooves? like the frogs got better or the soles got tougher?
